Would it be applied the drag&drop moving in MyBookmarks & My Groups too? - 21 views

bookmarks discussion feature lists moving
started by iplnts on 11 Oct 07 no follow-up yet

    Hi Maggie!

    My old theme the moving of bookmarks....
    I'm actually very glad to see the movable bookmarks (rearranging their arbitrary order), but it is applied on in the MyLists view.

    I can understand the very cleverly cooked several of views & functionality of possible arrangement/filtering and action in the different frontages
    (for example: In MyBokmarks All/Unread/Public/Private - filtering by specifc tags - Comment/Edit/....MyList, MyTags, MyGroups.. etc..)


    But it would be also very useful to add the moving feature of any already bookmarked page both in MyBookmarks & MyGroup frontage!
    1. Owing to if one uses the MyBookmarks/My Groups' bookmarks only looking into the abbreviated annotations (which is also a cool feature of diigo:)) one would wish to arrange the reading order
    2. If one bookmarked pages in a read sequence (byTime) but wish to change its reading order in MyBookmarks view he must delete the bookmarked pages and re-bookmark them again. This also entrainsdoing those same actions in MyGroups if the bookmarked pages had been shared immedately by toolbar option setting.
    3. The MyLists feature allows this but, it is not allowed in MyGroups..

    The moving feature also in both of frontages would be a very time.consuming feature


    Thanks for your answer

How to close a solved post? - 34 views

discussion feature forum
  • iplnts
     
    Hi!

    Although my question seems to be scary, there i a little reason for putting it!
    I'm a little familiar with the difference of goal of using a ticket sytem used for helpdesk and forum. I understand too, a normal forum thread not same as a ticket thread.
    But, in connection with my ealier question about DiigoLab

    http://groups.diigo.com/Diigo_HQ/forum/topic/413

    If there is no strict distinguished possibility to handle a general discussion and the technical problems which latter would be solved by a tickect sytem feature which enable to close a thread when it is solved...the forum may become increasingly unembraceable as the topics grow.

    suggestion: Probably, it would be applied a coloured or not or combo-dropdown + information field named 'ToDo' or 'Tasks' (chooseable: unanswered yet, hanging, on ToDo, solved...) put on to the forum header.

    It can be also coupled with to help and improve the perspicuity of threading
    discussed at topic: Threaded Annotation
    Re: http://groups.diigo.com/Diigo_HQ/forum/topic/337

    and also would be combined with a similar new chooseable drop-drow combo field on the forum header (rather than tags view) more simply for directing the goal of change of highlighting
    dicussed at topic: New highlight colors
    Re: http://groups.diigo.com/Diigo_HQ/forum/topic/144

    Thanks for your considering.

    HI! Maggie!

    My programmer mind went a little far, I understand your concepts.
    Even so if you have sufficient capacity for it your system may be really more refined and truly in profession of using the best abilitiies of (Aadobe & Google NoteBook. etc) combined in one!

Tags being clipped - 262 views

tagcloud
  • iplnts
     
    Hi Maggie!

    I'm here again!

    It is welcome to hear that the Tags are under more development now.! WOW!!

    I agree too, with this post thread: it would be good at least if the longer tagnames coudn't be cut off.

    I understand from a programmer view it is not so simple to resolve, similarly the toggling between the uppercase and lowercase, due to backend.

    - In latter case it may be probable a satisfactorily enough solution only allowing to type both lowercase & uppercase characters in tag names (i don't quite undertand why this would not be allowed :), It is a bit weaker conditions than the toggling between lower/uppercase ones.

    - Regarding to the long tag names appearance: Consider the tags appearing in drop down combo box added with a short and or filter feature at MyBookmark seeing the taglist under the link, instead of tag cloud which takes much more place from the screen. (it immediately would be edited, or picked up in another window the details as it is now;... it is only a tipp:)

    I already put an earlier post regarding to the
    Editing tags: which may be combined and solved elegantly and simply with this problem.

    I'd like also drawing to your attention too here according to the tag improvement my another earlier post confirming my and probably else one's claim for:
    There would be more charaters allowed in the tag names than 256.
    How many characters are allowed in the tag list?

    I'd appreciate your solution for improving the tag feature owing to it is a really sensitive part of the perspicuity.

    Thanks, for your listening

Importatnt!! - The order of clippings is now preserved?? - 18 views

bug clipit
  • iplnts
     
    Hi Maggie!

    I shouldn't like hurry on your team, but i like using Diigo on a daily base, and i feel these problems are very hot!
    I know, your team may be in continous huge working on of some earlier & future features' improvements being been posted by many of us. (ie. tags, Bookmark order, highlight color, ..etc.) and certainly they have another tasks on ToDo than these only!

    However there is a problem again with:
    The order of clippings is now preserved .

    What is written on your What is New pages under this header:

    ...The sequential order in which multiple clippings of the same webpage are displayed now follows their original positions on that webpage. So for example, if you made 10 highlights on a long web article, then the 10 clippings corresponding to the 10 highlights will be sorted according to their original positions in the article (and not according to the time the highlights were made)...

    It is unfortunately fails now. The clipping order is either displayed by the original position or erratically in the My Bookmark Expaned view.

    I don't know what may cause this.
    I used and basically not in sequential order the clippings with the below commands criss-crossed:
    - the right menu Diigo in main window: highlight or higlight & and sticky note
    - drop-down or floating Diigo menu when highlighted any text: highlight or higlight & and sticky note
    - form the Diigo toolbar : Highlight button
    - form the Diigo toolbar : Sticky Note button
    But, the result of the clipping order in the My bookmark Expanded view was a bit confused.

    Please look after if it is possible!

    It would be eliminated if the clipping order would be rearrangable in the My Bookmark Expanded view by dragging the clippings to the appropriate place by the owner, as it was proposed to be allowed also for the bookmarked pages' order.
    Re: Rearranging of Bookmark order at MyBookmark

    Please see here again about the enforcing of the rearrangement of bookmark order somehow owing to it also would conduced to the above error.

    The latter I mean, the boomark order rearranging also very miserable, and would be demanded to be allowed.as soon as possible.
    Naturally there may be tricks to rearrange the already bookmarked pages.
    I can for eample open the already bookmarked page in another browser's tab. I can delete the page from the Diigo My Bookmarks' order and then bookmark again this page from the browser view. This process can retain the tags, but not the clippings. Those vanish. Owing to the opened page in another browser's tab was initiated from the MyBookmark view thus, i can see both the earlier clippings and tags! It is obvious when i delete the page the clippings vanish and when this page has been bookmarked again, the tags would be rewritten. Although the clippings are not yet in the fresh bookmarked pages even so i can see them yet in the browser view, and i must somehow delete or re-clipit.
    I made this very exhaustive work either to be the already typed long tags at least retained or i hoped the clipping kept also. But certainly this abnormal manipulation could cause also the above error.

    Thanks for you listening of my comments.
    Cheer,
  • iplnts
     
    Hi Maggie!

    I was very chatty again in the above post.
    I've looked after and can not reproduce momentarily this error. Now everything worked well.
    Certainly, i was who made some shuffling.

    Aside from it, it would be really great and useful to arrange (move) arbitrary the clipping boxes', also the bookmarked pages' sequence.
    I guess, it is also not so simple to solve technically and you have already answered me on my another post these are on the ToDo list! I'll be more patient! There is not any trick until!

    Cheers,

    Hi Maggie!

    I checked, but the pictures did not appear even yet..
    If you see my given link above in browser view you can see pictures embedded in the text highlights. (They are not stars:)
    I highlighted them normally as embedded pictures in the text - not using the clipit.
    The pictures appears as | symbol when i view this link (the bookmark name: The Stargate of Atlantis) in My Bookmarks Expanded view.

    - Would it be the problem that this and all of my bookmarks are 'private'?
    - Have you get at My Bookmarks Expanded view somehow, or i must take this (or those problematic) bookmarks public to be checked by you?

    This same problem also appears in My Group Bookmarks Expanded view. In which these bookmarks also are 'private', as my group is also private.

    - Are the Diigo functions somehow restricted using them 'private' mode?

    By the way, i sent you earlier an invitation to join to my private group, to see and check those problems and to be a partner if you are interesting about this theme.
    --------------------
    Seizing the opportunity here, and not opening an another topics because of your above given help link regards also to the embedded highlighted links,

    There is also problem with the highlighted links. When i highlight only a (standalone) link which is not embedded in a text, the link sometimes is retained sometimes not, when i see in MyBookmarks/My Groups Expanded view! (it worked earlier well) Would be the problem again the 'private' mode?

    See: for example the
    Los Cambios Geneticos bookmark in My Bookmark Expanded view
    of which link is (see in a browser view)
    www.bibliotecapleyades.net%2Fciencia%2Fciencia_cambio.htm" rel="nofollow" linkindex="45">My link

    Maggie! Thanks for your looking after!



    > Are you referring to those "star images" on that page?

    > I tried it and it seems ok - basically you just need to "clip" those image using our highlight function (they are not video nor flash -- "Clipit" is only for video clipping). Just use your mouse to select the image and click diigo to highlight http://www.diigo.com/help/highlight/1. You will see "collected to diigo" message shown briefly on the upper left corner of the picture that you just "clipped"

Doubled Sticky text in MyGroup Bookmarks! - 16 views

bug group sticky
  • iplnts
     
    Hi Maggie!

    When i open a page in browser (Firefox) from MyGroup/Bookmarks View and add a sticky (in rich text format) the text will be shown 2x in the MyGroup/Bookmarks Expanded View.

    When i do same thing (as above) invoking the page from MyBookmarks then add a sticky then i share this page with my group the problem is same. The sticky text will shown 2x in the MyGroup/Bookmarks Expanded View.

    Another problem: When i add new highlights or stickies from MyBookmarks the newly added higlights or stickies will not be sychronized in MyGroup Bookmarks Expanded View. I mean i can't see those newly added hihlights or stickies. When i do the same thing from MyGroup Bookmarks the MyBookmark Expanded View will be well synchronized.

    Maggie! You know my Goup is private, so i will send you an invitation to be a goup member to your email to be allowed to make any view, try or edit in my group.

    Thanks for your help.

    Hi fridemar & Maggie!

    I looked after what fridemar offered. (It is a little exhaustive for me momentarily, although it may be a very good idea)
    But, i can confirm that the stícky window really very little ( it would be at least not only scrolllable and movable but, sizeable, too). Owing to i also struggled with more times to wrap the text again after i'd saved and edited a text in rich text mode. Because of the too little sticky window it often wraps the text wrongly after saving.

    I offered yet in an earlier of my topics

    There would be a little backway to solve this...
    When someone insert a link in rich text mode of sticky then one can edit that link in text mode inserting to this link in html mode ....target="_blank". It will open the link in a new window not in the sticky. But, there is little problem for example in Firefox it will open a new Firefox window not a new tab. I don't how it would be solved. By the way: it would be solved automatically by Diigo, when the sticky saved

Sorting/ filtering the forum by author and/or author's last post - 49 views

feature filter forum sort suggestion
  • iplnts
     
    Hi!

    Altough the group bookmarks may be filtered by the author, the forum post order can only be filtered by tags or category. In the forum view one can't see for example the joined user only the tags, also in the group bookmarks view one can't see the tags.

    suggestion:
    + Could it be both the group bookmarks and forum posts filtered by both tags or category and user/author, too? Putting both the tagcloud and userscloud displayed.
    + Or at least in the forum view the forum topics could it be sorted somehow by user/author?
    + Somehow the Last Posts also filtered or sorted by a choosen author name?

    This latter one would be quite impoving to ease following one's review his/her posted new or/and related topics.
    For example i'm mainting now to follow my running new and related topics at Diigo in a local text file which is a little miserable to copy and paste topics headers & links....:(

Editing tags - 38 views

discussion edit feature tag performance
  • iplnts
     
    Hi!

    It'd be helpful at the Bookmark Edit feature if the already existing tags could be choosen and added from a dropdown box. ( Similarly when a page is first time bookmarked or as it is here in tooltip.. It is very annoying to type again when modifiying more bookmarks.)

    I have to reload the page to be the long line more tags wrapped properly.

    It would be also helpful, if the edited tags could be also saved to the local bookmark after editing .
    When i use the export bookmark tools the tag-mappas are not retained.. It is also very annoying to create individually every changed or new tag-mappas in the local bookmark.

    Thanls for your help.
    iplnts
  • iplnts
     
    Hi,

    First of all, many thanks for your really quick reaction & care for many of topics.

    As above:
    - the export tag-mappas was not only my problem as i'd seen in the forum list.
    It's ok, i understand it is very critical to solve.

    The above problem about the editing tags had solved by me until a little backway. I opened the page again and again and added a new tag from the dropdown (or added a new bookmark) from the bookmark the page menu. It saved the tag-mappas to the local bookmark list as times as i had done. It worked well.

    Although it is not quite same process i concerned in this question editing the tags under My Bookmark at Diigo at reviewing of my bookmarks may be really important also.
    I guess (only), if the editing would be solved in this case by same way choosing from a dropdown, or tooltip and evidently it must be saved it may or it can belike update the local bookmarks already tagged.

    Both of above written solve the 'exproting tag' problem for individual bookmarks, although a little laborious.

Threaded Annotation - 470 views

discussion feature forum

    Hi!

    As i could understand from the sequential reading of THIS forum threads and as i looked after the things; we could speaking of two or three things ( and much else) having been overlapped.

    1. A group member can add 'a comment' to an existing sticky in Browser View of an annotated page when he clicks on a link in the Group Bookmark view. That highlighted text is "blue' which marks it has a sticky. Hovering over the blue text the sticky appears and the user can choose an action to Add (a) Comment. The Comment would be Rich Text edited which is a very excellent mode to distinguish the added comment to a specific sticky.There would be made as many comments as many group members review this specific sticky and all can change the comment format in rich text editing mode. I think, there is no else neccessary information than provided by userxx made this comment under each of the comments. Owing to it is very well followable. At best the sticky editing box would be larger fitting for the actual window position. The reader can go through the highlights quickly by smooth scrolling the mouse, hovering over the blue ones and review both the stickies and their comments. I don't exactly understand what is the problem about it?
    ---------------------------------------------------------------
    2. Second case when somebody oversees the bookmarked pages in MyBookmarks Expanded view where he can see also a sequentially listed order ( as it is in the text) of highlights and its stickies. This case of view regarded only for the owner of the group bookmarks. The owner also can glance over every notes and he can initiate a new sticky notes from this view by 'Add a Sticky'

    There is an inconsistency here!!! Owing to the sticky posted by the owner from here is not a new sticky in fact. It will be displayed both in this view and also in Browser view as a comment. From this view the owner can not choose rich text editing which is a mistake, i think.
    + An additional suggestion due to the clear-cutting would be here in this view making the sequentally listed highlights to be collapsible/expandable ( as also it is in the GoogleNotebook)
    + the shadow color of highlights boxes would be consistent with the highlighting colors ( yellowish which has no sticky, bluish has sticky...)
    ---------------------------------------------------------------
    3. Regards to the forum post. The present forum threading allows anybody to reply to any specific #n comment under a topic. Nevertheless any reply will attached to the bottom of the forum thread where the header userxx said (on date replied to useryyyy on #n)" marks which comment or reply regards to which.
    It may be perhaps troublesome that someone must read through the whole of contents of a topic to understand the last comment. May be best thing inserting the reply to the bottom of content which to it regards to. I don't know whether would it be possible or not.

    Please, i looked through this topics comments and i tried to give you an opinion as you asked. I hope it could give some summary and some another ideas of improving...

    Hi loyola!

    I might be a little perplexed your thoughts about what you whished to say originally in your #1 post with my earlier #6 post. Although, i only whished to clear the differences owing to you spoke of the 'threaded annotation' originally in your # 1.

    I understand your problem, and as this post start to become very long this is a very good example for how much difficult to overview and handle the 'comment threads'. I absolutely agree in that with you, it would be (perhaps) minimally good to logically insert the responses under that comment to which the replies refer to.
    (I can only guess how would it be simple solved, for example manually drag them by the reviewer which is a bit miserable, but it could work, i think! )
    Or i can offer here to your attention there is yet a hiperlink #n which is already allowed to jump to the appropriate comment as permalink, (as i can see, and using, but it is in fact not same you would like to see.)

    There may be else improvements making the threads to be better followable not seen here, but much rather at the normal Forum View window improving the fields of forum header. Which i suggested in my more posts.

    Look at them under the links as follows.

    improve the Diigo Group Forum with a ranking system

    Sorting/filtering the forum by author and/or author's last post

    How to close a solved post?

    + as one can see also who read this ...
    How nice would be also a little improving with rich text editing feature this view!!!!

Hyperlink & Picture insert do not work in Rich Text editing mode of Sticky - 24 views

bug hyperlinks picture sticky note
  • iplnts
     
    Hi!

    1. I'm unsuccessful to insert a hiperlink when i'm editing in Rich textmode of sticky. (also picture insert doesn't work)
    2. When i want to edit my Rich text format sticky the text vanish.
    2a. It would be nice also to be allowed to edit my sticky when i view My Bookmarks in Expanded mode.

    Thanks for your help

    Hi'

    Thanks,
    I'll verify, and I'm waiting for it asap owing to this feature really strongly useful.

    Some comment regarding to 2. (it'd be helpful for you) it was not written when i opened this new post:
    - The text vanishing problem at editing arised when a sticky had been created in rich text mode and already had been saved! It worked well until a sticky was not saved!!!

    - The problem happened in a sticky attached to a highlight. Probably a floating sticky uses same routine (creating and editing a sticky in rich text mode) thus it also fails this, but I did not try that yet.

Rearranging of bookmarks order under "My Bookmarks" - 89 views

bookmark feature sort
  • iplnts
     
    Hi!

    I'm questioning whether is there a solution to rearrange arbitrary the bookmark order when i'm at My Bookmark? I see, the bookmark order is yet defined by the cached date only, and i have not found yet a rearranging possibility. (I may be failed of reading the help or forum
    perusing concerning this possibility)

    It would be a rating system or any else (drag and drop) by which the author can define an individual order for directing the user attention, and also would be a really strong feature!

    Thanks for your considering it if it is not yet.

    Hi soulgrind!

    Your suggestion is good and welcome. I never guessed and i will use quite surely, thanks for the idea.
    But, i thought a bit stronger uncompelled elegant solution for it. I think, it would be resoluble..( the drag & drop would be the best as it is in the Google NoteBook for example..)

    Hi Maggie!

    I shouldn't like to hurry on your stuff...But, the arbitrary draggable arranging of Bookmark order (and the collapsible/expandable Bookmark Expanded view which lists the highlights and attached stickies, and perhaps adding an arbitrary header of highlights) would be so great improvement of usability of your application. This feature is really big in Google NoteBook!!

    Thanks for considering if it is possible!

Could Extract highlights contain the attached sticky too? - 14 views

extract feature
  • iplnts
     
    Hi! (I'm very active today :)

    The extracting highlights is a grand idea for much of further using...REALLY (i feel)!

    It would be nice if it could also list the attached stickies (and all of its comments if the user selects that too) similarly as it is seen when in My Bookmarks Extended view.

    Don't i wish too much???? (But, is is why i really like using the Diigo:)

    Hi Maggie!

    Thank you!
